Geology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (G Bennett) - A major 'break' striking in a north-northwesterly direction passes through this area, and is the locus of the Victoria, Cascade, and Kirby-Legge lead-zinc deposits. The quartzites of Bellevue Ridge have been strongly deformed, folded into an east-west anticline with the south limb dipping northward at angles of 45-50, and that the south boundary of the sediments is a faulted contact. The south limb of this anticline passes through the Indumin Claims. The sediments are most heavily sheared, but all rocks in the area show some deformation. For some distance from the contact the granite is sheared and shot through with a network of fine quartz veinlits. The diabase also is sheared, but to a lesser extent and the quartz veinlits are absent.


Dec 07, 2005 (P Beach) - Quartz carbonate sulphide veins cut diabase and granite.
